Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

Morikawa Riho said decisively, "Especially when the other party is so optimistic about it, and the group has also had plans to create stars and gods in the past six months, it is very likely that Mr. Kiriyama's work will receive more resources and support."

"That's good"

Hearing this, Zeshan Haruno immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, "Norwegian Wood" is still a hit.

Although this process seems a bit confusing, the fact that I was invited to the banquet shows that the other party must have read my book and felt that I have potential, so that’s why they extended an olive branch to me, right?

"Did Kiriyama-sensei bring formal clothes to Kyoto?"

On the other end of the phone, Morikawa Riho immediately changed her tone to a somewhat nervous one.

"Although it is a banquet for the group and the Ishizawa family, we will definitely not be the only ones present. Some famous writers near Kyoto will also be invited to this banquet."

"It's impossible that it's not just the writer who's present, but other people as well."

"If Mr. Kiriyama doesn't have a formal suit, it would be best to go find a store and buy one now."

"I brought it." Zeshan Haruno said quickly, "I just happened to bring two sets."

"That's good"

Hearing this, Morikawa Riho breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a more relaxed tone, "This time it's really thanks to Mr. Kiriyama. Maybe Mr. Kiriyama will soon become famous all over the island country."

"Excessive praise."

Sawayama Haruno pretended to be modest.

In fact, the corners of his mouth were already beginning to swell with rage.

As long as it can be successfully published and have the resources for publicity.

Then it is a foregone conclusion that "Norwegian Wood" will become a hit, and even if it is affected by the times, it will not change this result.

Chapter 193 It was obviously the master who came first

After hanging up the phone, Sawayama Haruno was still immersed in the joy that had just occurred.

Although the girls around him have encountered accidents one after another since coming to Kyoto, fortunately, his career seems to be going smoothly.

Maybe this can be considered a win-win situation.

As long as the current situation doesn't get worse.

Just as he was secretly happy, the elevator door not far away opened.

Suguha Ezaki happened to come out with bags in her hands, and her eyes met his by chance.

"Has the food from Piaoting been delivered?"

"Yeah, I just arrived."

Ezaki Suguha paused and asked in surprise, "What's going on? Why do you look so happy?"

Still, the other party saw through it.

However, Sawayama Haruno did not intend to hide it, so he explained: "It's about the book. It seems that it has been favored."

"Ms. Morikawa called me just now and asked me to attend a banquet at the Ishizawa family tonight. I think she wanted to tell me how well I can do in this competition."

"Congratulations." Ezaki Naoba reacted immediately and smiled gently, "Did you bring formal clothes?"

"Yes, it's in the Ginkaku-ji Temple, but I guess I'll have to go back and think of a way to iron it again later."

"Shall I have someone prepare the ironing machine?"

Jiang Qizhiye quickly reacted and said softly, "It should be a big battle tonight, it would be better to prepare in advance, and you'd better take a nap in the afternoon."

"Yeah."

After listening to the advice given by Suguha Ezaki, Sawayama Haruno became a little hesitant.

He would definitely go in the evening, but in the afternoon he wanted to find a chance to talk to Mine Shiori.

When the two were alone together just now, it was obvious from the other person's expression that he was interrupted by Ezaki Suguha before he could finish speaking.

If I go back to Ginkakuji now, I will have to wait until at least tomorrow to find a chance to talk to Mine Shiori alone.

"Go back and rest."

As if not noticing his hesitation, Ezaki Suguha continued to advise, "Master, it would be better if I could look after you."

"If the Ishizawa family is going to host a banquet, they will definitely not just invite people from Kodansha and other companies. There may also be other people in the industry coming to attend. If you don't stay alert, it will be difficult to leave a good impression on others."

As the eldest daughter of the Ezaki family, she knows how important these things are.

Sawayama Haruno thought about it and felt that what the other party said made sense.

After all, the level of tonight's banquet seems to be quite high, so we can't deal with it carelessly.

There is no big deal in postponing the chat with Mine Shiori until tomorrow. In fact, it is just right. After all, she also needs time to calm down and think. If you rush to chat with her now, it may bring back her memories of social death.

Thinking of this, Sawayama Haruno no longer hesitated and looked at Ezaki Suguha and said softly, "Then I'll leave the hospital to you?"

"Do not worry."

Suguha Esaki gave a slightly gentle smile.

She handed over a larger bag in her hand and added, "This one is for you. The bodyguard is downstairs. You should know him. Just tell him to take you back to Ginkaku-ji."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Sawayama Haruno nodded, took the bag and walked towards the elevator.

Ezaki Suguha turned around and watched him enter the elevator, then watched the elevator door close gently.

She waited until the numbers on the display above began to scroll before she let out a barely perceptible sigh.

Next, it's just me and the master.

Should I try to find out from her what exactly happened between her and Haruno?

Suguha Ezaki hesitated.

"This is obviously a rare opportunity," she muttered to herself.

It was clearly a rare opportunity, but she had a feeling that she couldn't do it.

I felt that if I got involved, not only would the relationship between me and my master become irreparably damaged.

Even the master and Haruno, and I and Haruno, will take completely different paths.

As expected, I'd better not ask, right?

Ezaki Naoha pursed her lips, thinking that perhaps it was best for her not to ask.

Sometimes, it’s better for people to be a little stupid.

If you ask everything, you will only get answers that make you sad.

What's more, it was obviously her who interfered with other people's feelings.

Although the master was not Haruno's official girlfriend, he was also not qualified to interfere in other people's affairs.

Therefore, maintaining the status quo may be the best option.

After taking a deep breath, Ezaki Suguha walked towards Mine Shiori's ward with Hyotei's food bag.

The hospital seemed to become unusually quiet at lunch time, but it seemed understandable when one considers that this was the inpatient department.

It was clearly only a distance of less than two minutes, but Ezaki Suguha walked extremely slowly, and his expression kept changing, as if he was having some ideological struggle.

Finally, she stopped outside the door of Mine Shiori's ward.

dong dong——

She raised her hand and knocked on the door twice, and whispered, "Master, can I come in?"

".Please come in."

Mine Shiori's slightly calm voice came from inside.

There was no fluctuation in her tone of voice, and she looked exactly the same as before she left for Kyoto.

No, it's even worse than she was back then.

It seemed as if something had changed the other party back to its original state.

"excuse me."

Suguha Esaki's tone also sounded a little weak.

After pushing the door open, she soon saw her master again.

One of them was standing, the other was sitting on the hospital bed, they looked at each other without saying a word.

After a short silence, Jiang Qizhiye took the lead in breaking the somewhat stalemate and said with a forced smile: "Master, I bought some porridge for you."

"Thanks."

Mine Shiori drooped her eyes.

"Did it cause you trouble?"

"Won't."

"Um"

Mine Shiori bit her lip lightly, and finally said sullenly, "Where's Haruno?"

"He has to go back to Ginkaku-ji Temple first. Ms. Morikawa will take him to a banquet in the evening, so I'm the only one here now."

"Is that so? It should be related to this competition."

Mine Shiori smiled tiredly.

Great, it's a competition thing.

She was a little afraid that Zeshan Haruno didn't come because he didn't want to see her.

After all, I did that.

I am even more afraid that if I do something like that, it will affect Sawayama Haruno.

Sure enough, secret love is something that can make people feel uneasy.

I am afraid that he knows it, and I am also afraid that he doesn’t know it.

I'm even more afraid that he will pretend not to know.

Mine Shiori sighed softly in her heart, then immediately perked up and looked at Ezaki Suguha who was taking out the lunch box.

"this is"

"Porridge from Piaoting. Ah, the chef may not know, but the food in this restaurant should be delicious."

Ezaki Suguha took the initiative to take out the food box containing porridge.

"Please use."

"Thanks."

The petite girl repeated her apology stiffly like a robot.

After taking the food box, the residual warmth from it seemed to slightly awaken some of her thoughts.

After a brief silence, she suddenly said, "That."

"Suguha, do you like Haruno?"

The sudden question froze Ezaki Suguha, who was just about to take out his lunch.

She turned sideways but did not dare to turn her head to look at her master.

His expression, which had been calm until now, also changed slightly.

"Like it or not?"

She looked away, looked at the vase on the cabinet beside her and whispered, "Where's the master?"

"Master, do you like Haruno?"

"Um"
